Shooting at the Shelter Series

Once again I took my camera to the shelter to see what I could capture from the kitties just hanging out at the shelter. I spent some time loving on these and the other kitties there. Such beautiful kitties end up without a home through no fault of their own, and because of the great lack of education people just do not know this.. People still think there are only old or broken animals there..

and all too often staff just do not have enough time to take photos that do these pets justice.. If you have any type of photography skills, you too should head down to your local shelter and practice them, and maybe even offer to share your photos with the shelter for their online presence.. or share on your own platforms.. (man this so should have been a B4tC post, shouldn't it??!)

What great photos! The Shelter Pets are Beautiful tour came through here and taught volunteers to take better photos of the pets at one of our biggest shelters. And you know what? They are still using intake photos on petfinder. Photos like yours are what help "sell" shelter pets so that people fall in love with them. We hope that more shelters will start using more charming photos of their residents to help find them all homes.
